Well.....Christmas is over. Did Santa (or Self-Santa) bring any good tools or Garage Goodies for you this year?
Let's see.... for me I ended up receiving (for the shop):
- That Ryobi tire inflator (compressor) I posted about earlier. I've already used it a number of times. That might be one of my more used tools I buy in a while. I went back and bought one for my dad ($24.99 Home Deep-Blow). They probably still have them. They had a stack last I was there. I'm sure it's not better than than a red/yellow or blue tool, but it's real compact. For the $$ I'm loving it.
- I bought into the Bauer 20V tool system (Black Friday $79-deal) and got the impact. And then Santa got me the hand vacuum. That hand vacuum, I've gone all over the house, cleaned the walls & corners of the floor, cleaned the car floors ...and dusted around the place. That might be one of the more used tools from this year's xmas. I would have bought a Ryobi hand vac but they're about 2x more and you have to buy the attachments separately. Not sure I'll buy a lot of Bauer tools, but we'll see.
- Couple Milwaukee tools: Impact/Metal circular saw.
- 40v chainsaw Ryobi (used). That was a deal which came up. Something I wanted and needed anyway. Not really for Christmas. I have gas chainsaws, but these battery ones are definitely great for jobs they are fitted for. Works pretty well.
-Some other small doo-dads and goodies for the shop.
I wanted a Rotary Hoist and a large glass beading cabinet...but I guess there isnt enough room in santa's sleight for that stuff! (or my checkbook...at the moment!). Or maybe I just wasn't THAT good of a boy this year! LOL
What about you guys? Santa bring any goodies for your shop this yr ..or for your Ram?
